Kyiv Express: Ukraine's Everlasting Night Train

An old folksong about a man who misses his true love reverberates along the platform, and the Kyiv Express departs on another 15-hour journey between Ukraine and Poland. The people onboard have their own stories to tell: of long-overdue reunions, of sweethearts lost to Russia's invasion, or the need for some respite in a far-flung land. In many ways, they are at one with their mode of transport: war-weary, but full of spirit, and determined to carry on.
